I've started and stopped, and re-started this post about a gajillion times, trying to decide what I should write about in today's blog post. (It's been a minute, I know.)
Pondering whether or not I should maybe just jump back in with a post on the latest cookies I baked, (They were pretty cute, if I do say so myself) or go deeper and put my two cents in about how strongly I feel we all should be doing in regards to this new virus world we are living in. (No, I think we all are growing weary of this topic on every.single.form.of.social.media. and I am no expert on it.)
So....with that being said...er...pondered...I decided a short catch-you-up post could be a good re-entry-to-blogging post.
Okay, so here is an incredibly abridged version of some of the things I have been doing these past few months, between sporadic blog posts (Most of which have been my Weekly Words to Live By...) so I can have it out of the way, and you're up to date. Then, I can get back to sharing all sorts of fun stuff I have been doing, and creating.
Life has been good, and I have been busy! Time spent with family and friends (holidays of course, girlfriends get togethers, visits with grandkids, and my son's promotion ceremony to Captain in the Nevada Air Guard!) and time at home with my Rock n' Roll Buddy. (Car shows, car rides, band gigs, yard work, football games, gatherings with friends, and lots of sofa picnics while we watched football or Netflix...)
Some small-ish items to note:
Remember that I had taken a second booth space at the new shop in town? (Reliques Marketplace) Well, I gave it six months, and I guess I just wasn't a fit, because my sales were flat the entire time, so I gave my notice and left there at the end of November. I'm still a customer there!
Meanwhile, I've been going gangbusters at Camas Antiques, and pretty much outgrew my boothspace there. I moved to a larger booth space in mid-February. (Yay!) I'm still kind of getting settled in to my new space, but loving the additional square footage and taller wall space for displays.
I've been expanding my etsy shop, and am right in the middle of adding about thirty new banners and bags and signs, so I'll be sharing some of that very soon! (Happy Hour, birthday, Mother's Day, Cancer Survival, and party in a box to name a few!)
I'm still doing my Redfin Real Estate thing, and I am getting ready to renew my license, which means I have been doing this for two years now. (Time does fly!)
I think that covers some things I get questions on, so now we can get back to my more usual and expected kinds of posts. Until tomorrow, stay well my friends!
